About and editorial standards

Travel Trade Signal is an independent publication for the global travel trade: travel agents, tour operators, destination management companies, hotels, airlines, cruise lines, tourism boards and travel technology providers. Every Monday, Signal Weekly puts the changes that matter onto one page, with two answers for each: what changed, and what it means for your pricing, contracting and clients.

What we cover

Air, hotels and stays, cruise and rail, destinations, travel technology, trade events, business opportunities and official travel advisories, across every source market.

How every story is sourced

• Every item links to its original source, preferably the company, government body or organisation that made the announcement.
• We do not copy articles from other publications. Our summaries are written in our own words and link to the source.
• Figures are reported as published by their source, and the source is named.

How we use AI

We use AI tools to monitor sources and draft summaries, which lets a small team cover a global industry every week. Every issue is reviewed and approved by an editor before publication, and the editor is responsible for what we publish.

Travel advisories

Signal Alerts summarise official sources such as government travel advice and airline or airport notices. They are a prompt, not advice: always check the linked official source before advising clients or travelling.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it and note the correction on the issue. Tell us at [email protected].

Independence and sponsored content

Travel Trade Signal is funded by advertising. Sponsored content is always labelled "Partner" and appears in its own tinted space. Advertisers do not influence our editorial selection or summaries.
